Nathalie,
you should open a command-shell (Run, Execute, cmd)
and start the .bat launcher file from there. Propably you will learn that
the installer did not create a template database when you chose to not
install PostgreSQL as a service. Blease consult the excellent documentation
for "createdb".
Best wishes,
Harald
